RC37: Minor Bug with Mozilla Browser

Martin · Post by **Martin** » Thu Jan 08, 2004 4:17 pm

After Upgrading to RC37, mozilla browsers are displaying a kind of a dotted border around a menu item.

It looks like the border on some anchor-tags without having "if(this.blur)this.blur();"

Got a URL handy?

No, but i made a printscreen.

Interesting. I do see what you're talking about, but I don't have Mozilla loaded to try it. NS7.1 (close as I can get) works OK.

Andy will look at it. Please post this to the Outstanding Bugs area.

Thanks.

That has nothing to do with the menu, but with the browser itself. The border shows that this is the active link. You will see the same border on any link you click on.

timrivera,

That is not true. Older Versions of Internet Explorer had this problem, but nor gecko based browsers.

Screen capture of a link with focus on Milonic website in Mozilla 1.6a

Yes, that depends on the brand and/or version of the browser. To avoid this effect, i usually add this code into an anchor tag: OnFocus="if(this.blur)this.blur();

But this is not the case here. RC30 did not made this mistake. I'm sure, that Andy will fix it.

Which version of Mozilla are you seeing this with?

Cheers

Hi Andy,

I'm using Mozilla Version 1.5

I think i've got to the bottom of it.

Should see something in RC38 due to go up later today.

Cheers
Andy

This effect occurs still with RC 42

Yeah sorry about that, it's part of the browser, not much we can do about it.

Cheers
Andy
